Yes that exit policy would work, assuming that your provider wants to
block traffic from your exit node having that ip address as its
*destination*.  You could specify a specific port as well, to avoid
blocking non-spam traffic of different types to that machine.

If your provider intends for traffic having that ip address as its
*origin* to be blocked, you will not be able to do so at your exit node.
 I don't know of any such thing as an "entry policy" nor recommendations
for tor relay operators other than using good security practices to fend
off attacks.
